Cosmos Old Age Home
28 Mopane Street, Van Dyk Park, Boksburg, Gauteng
SAVF Cosmos is an old-age home on Mopane Street in Van Dyk Park, Boksburg, on the East Rand (Ekurhuleni) of Gauteng. It is run by the SAVF (Suid-Afrikaanse Vroue Federasie), a non-profit Afrikaans welfare organisation whose elderly-care work dates back to 1904.
SAVF lists Cosmos on both its elderly-care directory and its 24-hour frail-care directory, indicating a home providing 24-hour care for older adults. The same site also lists a separate 'Cosmos Life right' unit at the same Mopane Street address, indicating self-care / independent-living accommodation alongside the frail-care home.
As an SAVF welfare home it is run on a non-profit basis. Monthly fees are not published on the SAVF site.
Typical costs for old age homes in South Africa
We do not have Cosmos Old Age Home’s own fees. As a general guide:
Private old age homes charge R6,000–R20,000/month. NGO and church-run homes are often subsidised and accept SASSA pension (currently R2,400/month). Government-subsidised beds are limited and often have waiting lists.
These are typical South African ranges for this type of care, not this home’s prices. Actual fees vary by room type, level of care, and area, and they change every year - always confirm current rates with the home.
